Hurricane force winds were definitely found in Perry, FL; maybe 80 mph winds with gusts to 100 mph in some locations—specifically near the eyewall? I’m just guessing, but it was pretty ferocious there and nothing is or should be minimized. NB: These videos are intentionally trying to capture the very worse conditions in the eyewall.
They got the story! It’s strong! If you weren’t hit by the eyewall, you probably did not see quite such severe wind conditions, but it was nothing to be minimized either. Flooding and storm surge in lower lying areas was bad in many locations, so many people suffered damage to their homes and property.
I recommend that site Live Storms Media on YouTube. I guess they’re basically stormchasers?? It’s interesting if they can make a living on YouTube revenue.
Just for reference is video from a tropical storm that was NOT a hurricane that hit South Texas about 10 days ago. There was no hype with this storm as it formed in the Southern Gulf of Mexico and had a circulation before landfall. It was billed to have “only” 60 mph winds. Here are the stormchasers trying to capture the most scary moments that they can find. To me it looks like 30 to 40 mph winds and higher gusts to about 60 mph?? (just guessing) Take a look and compare:
